CES 2008: Disney unveils Blu-ray plans for early 2008

Posted on January 6th, 2008 at 15:08 EDT

If you grew up watching your favorite animated Disney movies on VHS, raise your hand. Don’t worry, our hands are raised too. Disney has announced some solid news for its pre-CES press conference this year. It has confirmed that one of its most celebrated animated films of all time is now coming to high definition in the form of Blu-ray disc. Which title are we talking about? The answer is Sleeping Beauty in a fantastic platinum edition release. Not only will you be able to own this splendid part of Disney history, but you’ll also be in for a slew of extras as well. Featured with Sleeping Beauty will be a new Virtual Castle activity which incorporates new BD-Live technology as well as an interactive game entitled, Maleficient’s Challenge. However, if you’re like myself or the rest of us here at PSU.com, you’re probably waiting for a Lion King announcement as well sometime in the future, hopefully. Let’s keep our fingers crossed.

Along with Sleeping Beauty, Disney has confirmed the release of such titles as Finding Nemo, National Treasure and The Chronicles of Narnia for their Blu-ray lineup as well. Fans of Disney from all age groups will certainly be pleased with any or all of these titles being placed into your collections here in the near future.

Some other listed titles with actual specific release dates are as follows:

January 8: 'The Rock,' 'Con Air'

January 22: 'The Game Plan'

February 5: 'Crimson Tide'

February 12: 'Gone Baby Gone,' 'Becoming Jane'

March 4: 'The Rookie'

March 11: 'Dan in Real Life'

April 1: 'Hidalgo,' 'Coyote Ugly,' 'Unbreakable'

So you can more than likely expect the aforementioned titles that were confirmed at a later date than April 1st. We’ll keep you updated as more is announced.
